Episode 2: Reuben Christian & Guest host: Gemma Levitas

In this episode we dive into the journey of navigating the creative industries with 'Edu Tainer', Reuben Christian. We explore the challenges of non-linear careers, especially for people of colour, learn about the struggle with 'analysis paralysis' in a distracted world and hear their unique perspective on creating a more inclusive industry.

Reuben has a diverse skill set serving as a creative confidence coach, presenter and comedian. He has collaborated with organisations such as BBC, Vice, Red Bull, Samsung, Channel 4, Virgin Media, Pearsons and TEDx. He is 1/3 Co - host of 'What is This Behaviour Podcast’, featuring conversations with South Asian people going against the grain and, he’s also the founder of Dream Rehab, which offers transformative experiences to boost creative confidence, helping people build the creative confidence needed manifesting the buried creative dreams.
